Synthesis and Characterization of Thiol- and Carboxyl-Functionalized Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles

Article Preview

Abstract:

The purpose of this article is to synthesize the thiol-and carboxyl-bifunctionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (CMS-SH-COOH). CMS-SH-COOH was successfully synthesized by co-condensation and post-grafting methods. Moreover, the particle size and structural properties of CMS-SH-COOH were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The obtained results indicated that the CMS-SH-COOH presented a uniform spherical shape with a wormhole arrangement of the mesopores and a relatively narrow paticle distribition. Therefore, the CMS-SH-COOH might be a great potential carrier for the drug delivery system in the future.
